Year 2012 is coming to an end! Below are the Top 3 cars that I've driven, which I think has the best overall package in terms of comfort, handling, equipment, safety and also price.

3. Proton Preve

Proton Preve is a car that excel in terms of ride and handling (one of the best in C-segment), NVH and cabin space.
Moreover, for a car of its price, the list of standard equipment is on
par with some of the D-segment sedans available in Malaysia. Too bad the
built quality is not convincing enough for many and there is
still room for improvement.

Nissan Almera is one
of the most affordable, non-national B-segment sedans in our market.
Eventhough the Almera is cheap, its refinement, quality and comfort
doesn't reflect its low price tag. Moreover, it has a huge cabin
which is comparable to some larger cars. Fuel economy is also another
plus point for the Almera. The only slightly letdown is its handling.

When it comes to the overall package, I would say the Ford Focus is the
best value-for-money car. Handles great (one of the best in its
segment) while providing high level of comfort and refinement.

Safety features such as Active City Stop and technology such as Park
Assist, Active Grille Shutter and Torque Vectoring Control are only
found in Focus if compared with other cars around its price tag.
Starting at RM125k, it's a great bargain if compared with other Japanese
models around that price tag!
